God

How should we treat Epps' question in ROTF? - "You gotta wonder. If God made Man in his image, who made him?" This seems similar to Sam's "What would Jesus do?" question in the first film, so should God get his own page too? Not to mention that God was also mentioned in Masterforce episode 14, where Ginrai's friend Sam mentions that Ginrai's powers must've come from God. --Sabrblade 09:58, 3 October 2009 (EDT)

First of all, i think we need to quote him. Secound, we need to state that what we think what god is is not the same thing thransformers think it is.(even in difrent religions we don't believe in the same god)--Sunjumper 10:06, 3 October 2009 (EDT)

Quote who? Ginrai's friend Sam? Here's the dialogue -

Ginrai: "Sam, I'm sorry. Because of me, you-"

Sam: "Stop it. I know you all too well. God had to have been the one who gave you the ability to change into that form."

Ginrai: "God...?" ("Kami-sama...?")

Sam: "He's telling you that you have to protect everyone. I knew as soon as you told me about your mysterious ability." --Sabrblade 10:19, 3 October 2009 (EDT)

Something like this maybe?

This article is about the maker of Mankind. For used as an adjective, see God{{#switch:{{#sub:God|-1}}

!=

. }}

God is a god in the Generation 1 and Movie continuity families.

God is the creator of mankind. He may have, directly or indirectly, given Ginrai the ability to transform.

Japanese name: Kami-sama (神様)

Just throwing it out there. --Jimsorenson 11:20, 3 October 2009 (EDT)

I'm pretty okay with that. -Derik 12:06, 3 October 2009 (EDT)

Should we remove the Transformer gods from this article and put them in a "See also" section then? Or make a separate article for Transformer gods? -Mazenoise 12:16, 3 October 2009 (EDT)

Alleged?

What is with the designation of Unicron, Primus and the Chronarchitect as "alleged" gods? There's really nothing alleged about it, is there? --KilMichaelMcC 19:57, 3 October 2009 (EDT)

Japan

Stupid question: Is "god" as Japan uses it all over the place a translation from English or are they using the English word "god"? - Starfield 21:24, 3 October 2009 (EDT)

They're using the English word. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 173.71.84.186 (talk • contribs){{#if:| {{{2}}}|}}.

How did you decided that? I've generally seen Primus referred to as the "creator" or "god", but with the Japanese equivalent words.

Of course, you say "all over the place," Starfield, which means ANY use of the term "god", whether it refers to Primus or not, whether it's in a TF-related context or not. I'm guessing you meant strictly in relation to Primus. (I don't believe "god" has ever been used in reference to Unicron in Japan.)--Apcog 22:37, 3 October 2009 (EDT)

Yea, I wasn't very clear. I meant "Super-God Masterforce," "God Ginrai," "Godmaster," and "Godbomber" types of things. - Starfield 22:47, 3 October 2009 (EDT)

Oh, as part of TF names! Yes, in that case, all of the above except "super-god" use the English word "god" as part of the names. "Super-god" is a literal translation of "chōjin" (超神).--Apcog 23:47, 3 October 2009 (EDT)

Who is Megadyne?

Yes, I've been wondering about him a while now. I was told that he's a not so well known god who appeared in official material almost nobody knows about, but he doesn't even seem to be mentioned anywhere on this wiki or google. So who is he? --91.113.118.119 19:39, 25 March 2010 (EDT)

So far as I can tell, it's a fan character. I can't find any evidence of them appearing in official material. --abates 20:18, 25 March 2010 (EDT)

Yes, that's exactly my problem. I looked it up again - she said Megadyne made his appearance in 1985 Transformers 'Metatisic' saga and that he was the Decepticon counterpart of Primus. Nobody knows what 'Metatisic' is, she doesn't answer my question and apparently nothing can be found about this so called official material. Maybe she really just made something up for reasons unknown... --212.183.117.184 16:30, 4 April 2010 (EDT)

Why only the Christian interpretation?

There are more supposed avatars or incarnations of God (or son thereof) other than Jesus. Bahá'u'lláh? Arnold Potter? Apollyonus? Krishna? The Buddha? Horus? Also, I'd like to point out that the Bible never designates December 25th as the birth day of Jesus (if he ever existed). December 25th was the birthday of many Pagan gods that predate the Jesus myth, yet this page doesn't mention any of these deities. Really, Christianity is only one religion of many. Either give other religions a minor mention, or the Jesus/December 25th thing is completely unnecessary. Just a minor suggestion which I think may improve the page. Otherwise, this page doesn't even need to exist (someone prove me wrong on this point, however). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 64.252.183.157 (talk • contribs){{#if:| {{{2}}}|}}.

Well, this article deals with god from a fictional point of view and the only one that's come up in fiction has been the judeo-christian monodeity, so... --Detour 17:54, 16 December 2011 (EST)

Yeah, if we started adding stuff from outside Transformers canon, this article would no longer be useful for learning about Transformers canon. --abates 17:58, 16 December 2011 (EST)
